Chris,

This is all possible using a utility called "Macro Expresss"...
I have used this for years and you can automate almost 
anything across multiple programs...

Also; I start AmiBrokr with this and have found it will  only
work if the default directory is set to the amiBroker directory
first; This might also help when start an OLE broker object...

Walt

BTW: I have no affiliation with MEx; It's just a real handy tool...
